How can I use the Mac OS 9.2.2 Universal Install - ISO CD Image to install OS9 on a partition in 10.4?
Here’s what I have:
• PowerMac G4 1.25 DP (FW400), 10.4.11, single hard drive with two partitions, Mac OS 9 drivers installed. The partition on which I want to install OS 9 is formatted with Mac OS Extended (not journaled).
• Mac OS 9.2.2 Universal Install - ISO CD Image
I’m not sure how to use this image to install OS9 on one partition and keep 10.4 on the other partition. Can I use Disk Utility/Restore in 10.4 to restore the MacOS9Lives.img from the CD to the desired partition? If I boot from the CD, will I be able to select the partition on which to install OS9?
I’ve studied the “How to Install Mac OS 9 if you already have OS X Installed” post, which uses OS9general.dmg and the Restore feature in OS X, but OS9general.dmg doesn’t have the later ROM and CPU Software versions available on the Universal Install.
Thanks for any guidance you can give me. I really don’t want to screw this up!
